  1. I'm getting primarily milk and shea butter. Its a very subtle, gentle scent. I wish I got more coconut. In the imp, it reminds me of chaste moon, but dry, its a less sweet version of chaste moon. I'm getting a very very slight aquatic edge, but this is mostly shea butter on me with milk in the background


  2. I get the same melon note as fee, but as it dries, its a lot sweeter than Fee, I guess more candy-ish. It had a good bit of throw for about 2 hours, then it faded and went away. Stupid body chemistry


  3. cigar tobacco and melon? How could I pass this up?

     

    It starts out mostly melon with a hint of gin, but as it dries, the tobacco and chili pepper really warm this up to a slightly sweet, warm blend. The honey becomes apparent when it dries as well.

     

    This starts out smelling a bit like Fee, but then gets warm and spicy, like it's Fee's older, tarted up sister.

     

    I am so in love with this and I'm glad its a catalog blend so i don't have to stock up.


  4. This is VERY strong. i have to use this one lightly otherwise, it over powers. Everyone at ballet class kept asking who smelled like potpurri.

     

    I get a bit of cocoa and honey, layered over patchouli. Not a lot of tobacco. I need to try this again, but put a whole lot less on


  5. It goes on smelling very strongly of rubbing alchohol and reminds me of getting a shot. As it dries, there is a stage where it is smokey and ashy. As it dries, it smells a little like bug spray. It reminds me of camping. I'm getting a woody burnt cedar smell.

     

    It reminds me of rain putting out a campfire. Its a very unusual smell


  6. Leather and patchouli. Finally a leather blend that works on me. The cardamom comes out, but its not too strong. I'm kind of iffy about cardamom after biting directly into a pod at an Indian restaraunt.

     

    The leather is getting a little strong, which doesn't surprise me, as it seems to amp up a lot on my skin. The bourbon is no where to be found :P


  7. In the vial, it smells like baby asprin.

     

    On my skin, I get a touch of the woods, but then........cinnamon? wtfbbq??? Its starting to itch on my wrists, but no welts, so I leave it on to see what happens..........It eventually dries to smelling like wintergreen?

     

    It smells like I was chewing cinnamon gum, but then when the flavor went away, I popped some wintergreen gum.


  8. Victory, Nogah, Eternity, Endurance, God’s Grace.


    Rose and something woody like sandalwood and maybe some amber. Unfortunately, my body amps up rose and thats all I can smell after it dries

  9. Usually when the reviews say it starts out cherry almond, I'm happy because things that start out cerry almost always dry to a really nice scent on me, but I got no cherry almond, I got jasmine and ylang ylang. I like both those notes so its ok


  10. I'm getting sort of a boozy note from this, but when it dries, its a beautiful mix of lily and sandalwood with a touch of vanilla and opium. Maybe its the mandarin that is giving it the boozy note, but its boozy without making me smell like I spilled a drink on me. Very pretty


  11. This had the potential not to work on me. BPAL's Linen note usually doesn't like me and florals are always iffy.

     

    So I open the imp and its the BEAUTIFUL dusty, creamy scent. On my skin, it stays the same. THIS is what I want vanilla to smell like! Its creamy and dusty, with a touch of florals. I'm getting violets and lilacs maybe?

     

    Color me surprised! I'm getting a bottle of this at the next update
